Hospital CEO decries other hospital's 'out and out cruelty' toward some patients

Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center CEO Paul Levy writes Caritas Christi is "out of line" by attempting to take possession of several thousand medical records belonging to two doctors who left the hospital chain for rival Mt. Auburn Hospital, as reported yesterday by the Globe:

... This is out and out cruelty to patients by attempting to restrict their doctors' access to them and their medical records. I can't recall any other hospital system behaving in this manner when a doctor chooses to join another network, no matter how competitive the environment.
